TO FHE PUBLIC.

At a council of Baptist ministers
held at the hall On 18th and G sts.,
n. e., Sept. the 10th inst, to consid-
er the recent charges and publica.
tions rejecting upon the character
and reputation of Rev. Noah Dill.
lard, ex.pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist
Church, the following resolutions
were passed with but two dissent
ing votes, and these upon almost
insignificant points: Sexton Pres
ton denies ever having said that
Rev. billiard had one grain of salt.
WHEREAS, in our judgement, we
feel that the Rev. Noah billiard
has been unjustly treated by the
the Mt. Zion. Baptist Church, in
that the Church first, according to
Baptist usage, gave the pastor
three months notice that his servi-
ces would no longer be needed at
the expiration of that time, but,
contrary to Baptist usage, in one
week from the notice abruptly and
refectingly deposed him from the
pastorate, and published the same
in the papers without giving him
or the public any cause or causes
for the same and ri
WHEREAS, The Mt. Zion church
disciaims all knowledge of the
newspaper publications, to the eff
feet, that the Rev. billiard was seen
sprinkling salt in the church, the
meaning of which would be belief
IN conjuration; and that the Mt.
Zion church claims to hold no
charges, nor ever has against him,
and at the same time treating him
in a manner to bring a reproach
upon his standing as a minister =
Therefore be it
RESOLVED, (1,) That We. do con-
tinue to recognize Rev. Noah Dill
lard as Baptist minister in good
| and regular standing; ~ae.s
% That we do denounce as
false all publications referred to re-
fiecting upon bis, character and
reputation - -@r'-'--"-'--'

Correspondence of the Democratic Advocated
GALvA, Mcpherson County, Feb. 18th.
Through the kindness of some friend re-
ceive the ADVOCATE regularly every Tuesday,
and it brings me the news of my native county.
In a recent issue | saw a notice of muddy
roads. Our roads are very good. The winter
here has been ? grand one, with but little
snow or rain. Sunny Kapsps is coming to the
front in corn and oats, but ybeat, for the
reason that it is probably too wet, don't DO 50
we'll. learn from the ADVOCATE that some
young men of Carroll are coming west.
Come right along. Plenty Of good land in
Mcpherson county. ! was raised among tho
hills of Carroll, but came here in March,
1876, and love the level and rich soil here.
This is the country for men of small means.
Work plenty, wages good, and land yet cheap.
Thirty dollars per acre will buy good prairie
land, with some improvements. The better
the improvements the higher the price.
Also potieed by the ADVOCATE that Carroll
county still raises big hogs, and that my friend
Charles T.. Laaver took the gpess box on
Cootes' big porker. had two hogs weighing
300 aud $40, and beef that dressed 700, and
have a plenty to set before any Of my friends
from Carroll.

1st Because we want to introduce it to
every person having either gray or faded hair
and desiring to restore it to its original color;
and to every one whose hair, from any cause,
may be falling out, and to those troubled with
dandruff or scurf, or any unhealthy condition
of the scalp.
End. Because we have tried this plan most
successfully at home in Washington city,
where we have given away free over our coun-
tiers thousands of trial bottles, and have estab-
lished sale unparalleled in the annals of
proprietary articles.
3rd. Because we cannot conceive any meth
cd more aptto convince those who may chance
to read this that we have an article of more
than ordinary merit, that will do all we claim
for it, since we are willing you should try it
before you buy it. Now what we claim is
simply this, that it will restore the natural
color to gray or faded hair in three to ten
days, and never fail; that it will stop the hair
and vitality in from one to three months; that
and scurf, leaving the head in healthy condi-
ton; that it will restore gray whiskers as well
as the hair on the head
Our main claim, and thatin which Nattans'
Crystal Discovery differs essentially from any
other Hair restorer in the market, is its entire
freedom from all poisonous ingredients what

exciting Political Contests.

The present year will be one fraught with
unusual interest, politically. The campaign
promises to open much earlier than in ordi-
nary years, and, if we may judge from indica-
tons, will be a vigorous one on the part of the
regular Democracy. Not only are the stakes
high this year, but there seems to be deter
mination to end for a time, at least, The ca
reer of pseudo reformers, political cranks and
all pestiferous fellows claiming to be Demo
Gratis who are continually kicking up their
heels to attract attention and to appear to be
prominent.
The party will be recognized to some ex-
tent, and those who are not for it will be
counted against it. They will be on the out
side, too, in the distribution of honors and
emoluments. Men who are actuated by prin-
ciple and stand by the party are those who
are to be recognized. In the past too much
recognition has been given to irregulars, and
rebellion was means too often resorted to to
compel compliance with ambitions not always
laudable or those which should not have been
grati6ed.
There seems to be rigid determination on
the part of the party leaders everywhere.
They are tired of temporizing processes, of
hearing of the rule of the criminal class, of
the sinking funds and readjustment of public
salaries on scale that like services command
in private life. These are stale, and are only
used for purpose. And the purpose, too, is
not in the interest of the Democratic party.
There will be a full set of state officers
chosen this fall; also a legislature. County
offices are to be filled, and the question of
new constitution is also to be determined.
With this latter will arise the important issue
of equalization of taxation, and the people
will have to see to it that corporations that
are escaping taxation do not have too much
influence in the Legislature and in the con.
vention. The subject of taxation will be
leading one, and already it has begun to be
dicouccad

Hon. ]. Thomas Spriggs, the member of
Congress from Utica, N. Y, is credited with
saying that before the LIST of July, President
Cleveland will have letter in the hands of
the National Democratic Committee, declin-
ing to be a candidate for reelection. Mr..
Spriggs, who was one of Mr.. Cleveland's best
friends, before his nomination, says that the
President has realized that his own state is
against him. This statement must be taken
by the reader with many grains of allowance.
1t is improbable, to say the least If the
President entertains such a purpose he will
probably keep it within his own breast, and
reveal it to no one, until he proclaims his
purpose to the public.

LINES Of THE DEATH OF MAY HoLBRooKs,
BY MARY Z. WOODS.
Dear little May,
Purest arms enfold thee now
And purest words are spoken
CROWN ofgiory deoks thy bHg;y
That never can be broken, :"
Thy little soul is free from care
No deeds of earth can harm thee;
No evil tongue can reach thee there,
No dreaded foe can wrong thee.
Thou'st joined in songs with angels bright,
That new sweet song of heaven;
And dressed in robes of spotloSs white
By purest hands are given.
The Death Angel carried our May
Far off beyond the river
These throughout Eternal Day,
She viii liye in the bright forever
